Chapter 1

Extending Battery Life

! Battery life depends significantly on battery age, usage conditions, and type. Digital cameras are demanding on batteries. Not all batteries perform well under these challenging conditions. ! Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power: – Reviewing your pictures on the camera screen (see page 49) – Using Liveview (see page 20) – Using Quickview (see page 22 and page 44). – Excessive use of the flash ! Purchase an optional Kodak 3-volt AC adapter to power your camera (see page 111). ! Purchase an optional Kodak EasyShare camera dock 6000 (see page 75). The camera dock 6000 powers your camera, transfers pictures, and is also a battery charger for its included Kodak EasyShare Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack. ! Purchase an optional Kodak EasyShare printer dock 6000 (see page 74). The printer dock 6000 powers your camera, makes 4 x 6 prints with or without a computer, transfers pictures, and is also a battery charger for its included Kodak EasyShare Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack. ! Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean, dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera. ! Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41° F (5° C). Carry spare batteries when using your camera in cold weather, and keep them warm. Do not discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature, they may be usable.

Battery Safety and Handling

! Do not allow batteries to touch metal objects, including coins. Otherwise, a battery may short circuit, discharge energy, become hot, or leak.

! For rechargeable battery disposal information, visit the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation Web site at www.rbrc.com. 13

Taking Pictures

The camera is ready to take pictures when you turn it on—even if you are in Review, Share, or Setup. (In Video mode, the camera captures video.) Before you take a picture, make sure the storage location is set the way you want it (see page 10).

Take a Picture 1 Turn the Mode dial to the mode you want to

use. See page 16 for a description of the picture-taking modes. The camera screen displays the mode name and description. To interrupt the description, press any button. 2 Use the viewfinder or camera screen to frame your subject. (Press the OK button to turn Liveview on. See page 20.)

3 Press the Shutter button half-way to set the exposure and focus.

4 When the ready light glows green, continue pressing the Shutter button completely down to take the picture. When the ready light blinks green, the picture is being saved; you can still take pictures. If the ready light is red, wait until it turns green. See Flash Settings In Each Mode, page 25. See Changing Optional Settings, page 28.

Chapter 2

Picture-Taking Modes For the best possible pictures, choose the mode that suits your conditions.

Use this mode Auto Sport

For: General picture-taking. Automatically sets exposure, focus, and flash. Subjects that are in motion. Shutter speed is fast.

Full-frame portraits of people. Allows the subject to be sharp and the background to be indistinct. For best results, fill the frame with a head-and-shoulders pose. Use the Telephoto (T) zoom button to exaggerate background blur. Night Night scenes or low-light conditions. For shutter speeds slower than 1/60 second, place the camera on a flat, steady surface or use a tripod. Due to slow shutter speeds, advise people to stay still for a few seconds after the flash fires. Landscape Distant subjects. Flash does not fire unless you turn it on. Auto focus framing marks (see page 21) are not available in Landscape. Close-up Close subjects 4-24 in. (10-60 cm) from the lens in Wide Angle; 9.8-33.5 in. (25-85 cm) in Telephoto. Use available light instead of flash if possible. Use the camera screen to frame the subject.

Use PAS mode when you want ultimate creative control. PAS mode gives you quick access to Program, Aperture priority, and Shutter priority modes. See page 18 for directions on how to select the modes and settings in PAS mode.

Program Mode Use Program mode when you want to manually control exposure compensation (how much light enters the camera). The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture (f-stop) based on the scene lighting.

Aperture Priority Mode Use Aperture priority mode when you want to manually control aperture and exposure compensation. The camera automatically sets the shutter speed for proper exposure. Aperture priority mode is primarily used to control depth of field (the range of sharpness). NOTE: The aperture setting may be affected when using optical zoom.

Shutter Priority Mode Use Shutter priority mode when you want to manually control the shutter speed and exposure compensation. The camera automatically sets the aperture for proper exposure. Shutter priority mode is primarily used to prevent blur when your subject is moving. Use a tripod for shutter speeds slower than 1/60". 17

In each PAS mode, you can change only the options that are highlighted in white. Unavailable options are grey. 4 Press the Menu button to change other settings. See this Chapter (2) for details. 18

Chapter 2 5 Take a picture as usual (page 15).

PAS Mode Screen Options Aperture—also referred to as f-number, controls the size of the lens opening, which determines the depth of field. Smaller aperture settings keep both foreground and background sharp, good for landscapes and well-lit conditions. Larger aperture settings make the subject sharp and background blurry, good for portraits and low-light conditions. The highest and lowest aperture settings may be affected when using optical zoom. Shutter speed—controls how long the shutter stays open. To prevent camera shake, use a tripod for shutter speeds slower than 1/60 second. Exposure compensation—controls how much light enters the camera, good for controlling backlit scenes. If the picture is too light, decrease the setting; if it’s too dark, increase the setting. See page 30 for setting exposure compensation in other modes.

Settings Apply Only in PAS Mode Settings you change while in PAS mode apply only to pictures taken while in PAS mode. For example, if you change the Color Mode to Sepia while in PAS mode, all other still modes (auto, sport, portrait, night, landscape, and close up) retain the default setting of Color. The settings, including Flash, remain active for PAS mode even when you change modes or turn off the camera. This is the place to set and keep your custom settings. IMPORTANT: Use Reset (page 38) to return PAS mode to the default settings.

Do not wipe the camera lens or camera screen with chemically treated eyeglass lens tissue. It may scratch the lens. ! Wipe the outside of the camera with a clean, dry cloth. Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners or organic solvents on the camera or any of its parts. ! Connect a tripod directly to the camera; do not connect a tripod to the camera dock. ! Service agreements are available in some countries. Contact a dealer of Kodak products for more information. ! For digital camera disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities.

Locating Pictures and Videos on a Card Pictures stored on SD/MMC Cards use a standard (DCF-Digital Camera Format) agreed upon by many camera manufacturers. This lets you use the cards in different cameras. If you use a card reader to retrieve your files, the following description of the card file structure may be helpful. MISC folder—contains the order files created when you use the Share feature to tag files for printing, emailing, and as favorites; also contains the address book and album names copied from the computer. SYSTEM folder—created and used while updating camera firmware. DCIM folder—root level folder, contains the 100K6440 folder. Each time you turn on the camera or insert a different card, any empty folders within the DCIM folder are removed. 100K6440 subfolder—initially contains all pictures and videos on the card. Album tags are stored here with the picture or video.

109

Chapter 12

Picture Naming Conventions ! Pictures are named 100_nnnn.JPG, and are numbered in the order in which they are taken. The first picture is named 100_0001.JPG; the highest number allowed is 100_9999.JPG. ! When a card contains a picture named 100_9999.JPG in the \DCIM\100K6440 folder, subsequent pictures appear in a new folder (\DCIM\101K6440), beginning with picture 101_0001.JPG. ! Even if you transfer pictures to the computer or delete pictures from the camera, the camera continues to use consecutive numbers for all subsequent pictures. For example, if the last picture taken was 100_0007.JPG and you delete it, the next picture you take is named 100_0008.JPG. ! When you insert a different card into your camera, the next picture number is defined by incrementing the higher of the last picture taken by the camera, or the highest existing picture number in the folder. ! If you use the card in a camera other than the Kodak EasyShare DX6440 zoom digital camera, and that camera manufacturer adheres to this file structure standard, the \DCIM folder contains a folder named by that camera. For more information, refer to the documentation that accompanied that camera.

Burst Pictures When a burst series is initiated, a letter “B” replaces the underscore in the file name. When a burst series is initiated or ended, the second digit to the left of the decimal is incremented by 1. Image 1 2 3
